Chapter 394 The Kitten with a Bad Memory
"Peter Pettigrew?"
After listening to Lupine and Sirius's narration, Dumbledore fell silent, while Snape looked at him nervously, fearing that he would continue to protect Lupine.
But Dumbledore's next words made Snape breathe a sigh of relief.
"If that's all, I don't think you can convince me, Remus."
Although what Lupine and Sirius said sounded very true, and even Dumbledore felt that it was probably the truth, just like Snape's rebuttal, there were also many loopholes in it, which made Dumbledore feel that it was probably the truth. Bullido could not trust them intuitively.
In other words, without important evidence to prove the authenticity of these words, it is impossible for Dumbledore to risk believing them.
As for a certain little fur cat who holds key evidence...
He was currently lying in the arms of Professor McGonagall in the form of a cat, sleeping soundly.
Because Fish had already heard the story about Peter Pettigrew once, so he naturally had no interest in it. As for the fact that Scabbers was an Animagus... Maomao had completely forgotten it because of being interrupted continuously. Gotta tell them.
"I don't need you to believe my innocence! But Peter Pettigrew is still alive! You must be vigilant!" Sirius shouted to Dumbledore excitedly: "And Remus, he came to Hogwarts for me. I only contacted him later, and what happened before has nothing to do with him!”
He no longer considered his own safety at this time, he just wanted Dumbledore to take Wormtail's matter to heart and spare Lupin who was implicated by him.
At this time, Lupine also spoke, just as Sirius wanted to save him, he also wanted to save Sirius.
"When I first learned about this, I went to investigate Peter's affairs." He thought of another piece of evidence and said, "Although I couldn't find any trace of him, I found out that Banban was already in Weiss." The Lai family has been here for more than ten years... Ordinary mice don't have such a long lifespan."
"That's not enough. Remus, the blood of magical animals, and some wizards' experiments may have caused such a situation. This does not prove that Scabbers is Peter Pettigrew."
Dumbledore pursed his lips. This evidence was not enough to exonerate Black, but he was already considering whether to hand Black over to the Ministry of Magic...
Of course, no matter what the final decision was, he planned to track down the affairs of Peter Pettigrew and Scabbers.
Snape also had the same intention. He actually had a vague idea that this was the truth, but this did not prevent him from finding excuses to kill Black and Lupin.
"It's obvious," Snape said impatiently: "We should hand them over to the Dementors as soon as possible."
Dumbledore pondered, if these two people were handed over, Sirius would definitely be dead, so he was still hesitating.
"We still need to further confirm the truth."
He shook his head and decided not to hand over Black and Lupine to the Ministry of Magic for the time being, but to let the school take care of them.
Snape immediately stood up from his chair and shouted to Dumbledore emotionally: "How else do we need to confirm the truth?! They are the murderers! Even if you are the headmaster, you can't stop me from bringing them to justice!"
He has decided to use the Ministry of Magic to forcibly capture Black and Lupin, even if he falls out with Dumbledore.
Dumbledore obviously didn't want to see such a situation, so he could only patiently persuade Snape.
At this moment, Professor McGonagall suddenly remembered something...
"Feixu, wake up!"
She pushed the little fur cat sleeping soundly in her arms.
"Meow-"
(=Д`=)
Fish turned over on Professor McGonagall's lap, exposing her belly, and then stretched out her limbs.
"Meow?"
Maomao continued to lie down, tilting his little head to look at Professor McGonagall in confusion.
"Change back first, I have something to ask you."
Professor McGonagall rubbed his belly and urged him urgently.
Twisting and falling off Professor McGonagall's lap, Fish returned to his human form.
"What's wrong, Minerva?"
(Φω)
The little cat rubbed its sleepy eyes and asked in a murmur.
"Fish! Can you recognize the Animagus in animal form?"
Professor McGonagall's words made Black and Lupin's eyes light up, while Snape pursed his lips.
"Meow? Yes, but it can only be those meows who are relatively small, like Blackfish, who didn't recognize it and was deceived by him into eating a lot of food!"
(`ω)
The little cat replied angrily.
Professor McGonagall was also choked, but she had long been used to Fish's lack of tune, and quickly recovered, and waved her hand, saying: "This matter is not important, I am asking you now, Ron ·Is that rat Weasley raised an Animagus?”
The yawning kitten was slightly startled, and then thought about Banban again.
"Yes! Scabbers is actually from Animagus! Fish wanted to say it before, but then he forgot about it, Meow!"
∑(ΦДΦ)
"How could you forget such an important thing!!!"
Professor McGonagall was so angry that she grabbed Fish's cheek and scolded her loudly.
"That's what Fish wanted to say! Then Albus came and I forgot about it, meow! Minerva, you just remembered it yourself, meow!"
(≥Д≤)
The kitten waved his hands and struggled while throwing the blame to Dumbledore. Although the kitten couldn't remember how he forgot, he should just throw the blame first.
"Tell me exactly what happened!"
Professor McGonagall let go of her hand and glared at Fish fiercely.
Everyone else also turned their attention to Fei Xu, and everyone had different expressions.
"Fish only knows that Scabbers is an Animagus... I don't know if he is Pettigrew Peter Fish..."
(ノ)`ω(ヾ)
The little cat rubbed his face and answered casually.
"Be specific! When did you know he was an Animagus? Why didn't you tell us about it?!"
Of course, such a simple answer did not satisfy Professor McGonagall, so she continued to ask sternly.
"Fish knew about it when he went to the Burrow before, but Scabbers said that he was just tired of human life, so he wanted to be a mouse..."
Fish told Professor McGonagall exactly what he had said to Scabbers.
At that time, Fei Xu didn't know much about things, and he didn't recognize the identity of human beings that much, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with Ban Ban's words. But looking back now, Ban Ban's excuse seems strange.
In fact, after experiencing the incident of Voldemort's diary, Fish had already become a little suspicious of Scabbers, but he had already escaped during the summer vacation. Ron also said that nothing was missing from their home, so Fish did not return. over thinking.
"Actually, Fish had guessed that Scabbers might be Peter Pettigrew, but Black and Severus kept yelling there, so Fish couldn't get a word in, and then Albus suddenly ran over and said Forgot meow…”
(ω)
The kitten, who gradually recalled it, tilted its head in embarrassment, scratched its head and said with a smile.
Although Sirius and Lupine, who were involved, were speechless, they were still very grateful to Fish. If it hadn't been for Cat, they might both have been thrown to the dementors.
Snape's expression was a little uncertain. Of course he didn't suspect that Fish was lying, but what Fish said basically ruined his plan, but Snape still didn't intend to let Black go so easily. .
"This can only prove that the mouse is an Animagus. It is not certain whether he is Peter Pettigrew!"
Snape said viciously.
Of course Peter deserves to die, but Blake shouldn't have it easy either!
If he hadn't been so smart, how could Lily have been killed? !
"Severus..."
Dumbledore frowned. The situation was already obvious. Snape continued to pester him like this, obviously just wanting to take the opportunity to retaliate.
"We still need to further confirm the truth."
Snape looked at Dumbledore without showing any signs of weakness and said back what he had said before.
"Okay..." Dumbledore sighed. He knew that he would never give up if Snape didn't let him out. "Then what do you want to do?"
"It's very simple," Snape bared his teeth and showed a sinister smile as he replied, "Do you still remember the Veritaserum I mentioned to you before?"
Dumbledore frowned and wanted to say something, but Sirius Black jumped out on his own.
"No problem! I'm willing to be interrogated with Veritaserum!"
A sneer instantly appeared on Snape's lips.

It’s holiday! Prosperous and in a trance!
Let’s play with him for two days and two nights first!

Regarding the grudge between James and Snape, it’s not that I’m biased, but that he was indeed the master of campus bullying at the beginning, and it was not a simple dispute between the Lion House and the Snake House or a fight between Death Eaters and Aurors.
"Whenever you meet someone in the corridor who annoys you, cast a spell on them." "Since the seventh grade, I have stopped casting spells on others just for fun."
This is Lily and Lupine's evaluation of James respectively. In other words, he did not only do this to Snape. Even Harry did not want to become like his father after seeing Snape's memory. Same.
To put it simply, he and Black are twins with worse behavior. Maybe in the eyes of foreigners, there is no difference between the robber and the twins, but I don't like them.
As for the curse invented by Snape, his hobby from the beginning was to study black magic. Even without James and the others, Snape would probably have invented it. The existence of the Robbers would at most speed up this process. .

Thank you for the reward.
